Sonny And Chance.....

Some good news on two of our special big boys. First up Sonny has settled a lot now, much to the help of the rope toy seen with him in the top picture. It never ceases to amaze me how focused on one toy German Shepherds can become.

Today was a massive one for Chance as he decided to get up on his own and go out for a walk, not once but three times. We normally need to assist him, but today I approached his kennel and he just stood up and walked to the door, almost brought tears to my eyes. Once again a dog has shown amazing strength, courage and faith. They really are amazing.

Who We Are.....

Stephen Wylie and one of the SHAK dogs Donnie.

And What We Do.....

Celebrating its 10th anniversary on June 19th 2016, SHAK has come a long way since its founder Stephen Wylie uttered those fateful words ‘never again...’ after the shock death of his dog and best friend Shak.

The hundreds of dogs whose lives have been changed because of that loss is testament to a dog that had a lasting imprint on everyone he met.....

Today the registered charity has approximately 70 dogs inits care, offering sanctuary to the ones that really need it or a place to simply become a dog again for others.

Working only with destruction cases from vets, strays anddogs from our trusted charity partners, SHAK does not take in dogs from members of the public. Likewise we are not a rehoming centre, although we do offer the opportunity for people to apply for our Forever Foster project.

We concentrate all of our time, energy and resources directly into the well being of our dogs, enriching lives that others had written off.....

Keep Calm
